Swim
Comments: I am pretty happy with swim. It was faster then what I thought it would be. I did not mind having people around. I swam really close to the orange balls so it was really tight w people . I would move farther out next time. 402 out of 510 for females. What would you do differently?: I would try to do less breast stroke and not hold out so long and really try to push it. I waited to long for I wasn't to sure of distance. I rate my swim good (for me )for I really do suck at this. I kinda enjoyed the swim today. Lots of room to improve Transition 1
Comments: long way to trans. I took my time didn't want to forget anything. My bike comp, was messed up. I was trying to reset but could get it to work. no socks What would you do differently?: forgot to reset bike comp. I didn't having any idea what I was doing on bike. no miles posted. I also had a hard time getting my shoes clipped on Bike
Comments: I rode pretty comfortable for I had only biked the race distance once. I had a hard timekeeping pace. I would get going at a good pace but I always had to brake on turns. Lots of sharp tight turns. I turn real wide and have to slow down to much, it really cut into my avg. 237 place out of 510 females What would you do differently?: bike more miles, work gear changes. more time on bike Transition 2
Comments: went smooth. I felt hungry, no socks grab water bottle What would you do differently?: have garmin reset and ready to go. yup I forgot. Run
Comments: I thought I should of been able to go faster but wasn't feeling it 36 place out of 510 females What would you do differently?: have garmin set Post race
What limited your ability to perform faster: confidence and inexperience, more time on bike and ows Event comments: 189 out of 510 females. I am pretty happy with this I loved it and look forward to the next time I can race Last updated: 2008-04-15 12:00 AM

Woke at 4am warmed up my starbuck skim mocha. ate banana and slice of peanut butter toast.Packed up car and left for race at 4:30 am. Had a hard time finding parking spot. Set up tran, had a great spot.No problem finding it next to a large pay here sign.
nothing just watched the pro's. Wave was 20 min behind. checked out water. It was warm and I had on wetsuit 76. did a bit of breast stroke and sat in water air was to cold and waited till we had to line up. I wasn't to nervous because It did not look to far and I thought I could swim the distance.
